Wonderful Portrait Exchange (And Another Contest)

Here is the wonderful portrait I received from Rama Hughes of the Portrait Party. I just love it and I think (hope) that it really shows me.

"the photo from which this painting of kerstin (above) was drawn has been used for so many portrait swaps that it seems like an icon to me now. i thought about asking for a new picture but i was curious to see how my version would turn out. kerstin's drawing of me on the other hand (below) took me by complete surprise. it's like a portrait of my daydreams!" Rama Hughes

yep. i´m really happy with the portrait. it´s beautiful.hey that would be great, if you could talk tony into it. tell him that he should draw a portrait of you showing were the ight comes from. lol. sorry, but whenever i read "tony" this immediately comes to my mind. :) it´s not about getting beautiful portraits done. it´s all about the fun and maybe having some good new ideas.

@mrana: thanks. it is indeed a lot of fun. i have done a lot of portraits already for the portrait party. actually i started doing portraits just because of it.

@littlemithi: wow. thanks, mithi! what a nice compliment. well there are some which i do really like a lot more and there are quite a few things i would change, but still i like it very much and i´m glad he likes it. isn´t easy to exchange portraits with your art hero, but it was a lot of fun. :)
